WHAT THEY SAID:
 
"We did a decent job grinding today and sticking with it," said Longwood Head Coach Megan Weaver. "We had some putting challenges, which led to doubt. Hopefully we come out more confident tomorrow. But we are still in a good positiong—the goal is top four to make it to match play. We are closer to the two teams tied for second than the teams tied for fifth. We don't have to play lights out to hold our position, so we just need to stay present and play our typical game tomorrow."
 
UP NEXT:
 
Longwood will play the third and final round of stroke play on Tuesday morning. The top four teams advance to stroke play on Wednesday. The top finisher plays the fourth place team while the second and third place teams compete simultaneously in semifinal matchups that morning. The two winners square off in the afternoon for the Big South Championship.
